Welcome!

SciTinyML: Scientific Use of Machine Learning on Low-Power Devices will be run virtually from October 18-22, 2021.
The Zoom link was sent out to all registered attendees. Please check your email and/or sign up for our workshop.

SciTinyML is an ICTP Virtual Meeting supported by the TinyML4D Academic Network and open to all.

Embedded machine learning (tinyML) enables machine learning technologies to perform on-device analytics of sensor data at extremely low power. This allows for new scientific applications to be developed at an extremely low cost and at large scale.

In recent years, hardware advancements have made it possible for microcontrollers to perform calculations much faster. Improved hardware has made it easier for developers to build programs on these devices. Perhaps the most important trend for scientists has been the rise of embedded machine learning, or tinyML.

Between hardware advancements and the tinyML community’s recent innovations in machine learning, it is now possible to run increasingly complex deep learning models directly on microcontrollers. tinyML represents a collaborative effort between the embedded power systems and machine learning communities, which traditionally have operated independently.

Topics:

  • Introduction to Embedded ML (tinyML)
  • Examples of tinyML applications
  • Scientific Applications of ML
We have also held 3 seminars leading up to the workshop. If you missed any of the seminars you can find the recordings on the TinyML4D Past Events page.
